rr ^Captain Hook' Takes Charge £\

After a long dry spell, then two minor tournament

wins in the last month, Mike Sigel was tuned in. He

outclassed the Sands Regent Open field and deserved

the $10,000 first prize.

Although he spent most of his time in the loser's

bracket, Mike posted a 10-1 record which included

five .900's, and the tournament high average of .890.

Mike displayed excellence in most statistical

categories but exceptionally well in "Run Outs from

the Break". This stat reflects a player's ability to

break and run out without allowing his opponent to

the table. Sigel accomplished this 43* of the time.

In fact, if he made a ball on the break, you were in

real trouble, for under these circumstances he ran

out 60% of the time. How can anyone fade that?

Well, it appears "The Captain" is back in form and

ready for bear! Welcome back Mike.

Notable Matches The spectators at the Sands were quite fortunate for

there were many exciting matches that were notable

enough to warrant review. The number in parentheses

is the player's TPA for that session.

In a most unusual match, Grady Mathews (.683)

pocketed only 28 balls while Mike Dooley (.828)

pocketed 78. Mathews won 9-5!

After trailing 1-4, Darrell Nordquist (.821) held

Rich Geiler (.692) to pocketing just three more

balls for the rest of the set. Nordquist won 11-4.

While leading 7-4, Ronnie Allen (.806) missed an

easy nine ball. It was the last object ball Ronnie

would hit. Fred Guarino (.864) won 9-7.

After defeating Harry Platis (.714) 9-8 in a seesaw

match that traded the lead five times, Keith

McCready (.810) announced to the crowd, "Never a

doubt!"

At 7-5, Roy Futternick (.856) and Robert LaBlanc

(.745) played "hot potato" with the nine ball six

times before Roy pocketed it. Futternick won 9-5.

Mike Sigel (.887) ran out from the break five times

during his 9-3 victory over Lance Saunders (.833).

Tony Martino (.885) shot a 1.000 for the last six

racks to win 9-4 over R. Shreckengaust (.629).

Bob Hunter (.901) shut out Lance Saunders (.654)

9-0.

From a 4-7 deficit, Mike Zimmerman (.809) put it

together and upset Jim Mataya (.783) 9-7.

While leading 8-7, and shooting an easy eight ball,

Dick Renk (.820) miscues and never shoots again.

Mike Massey (.798) wins 9-8.

Similarly, while leading 8-7 and shooting an easy

eight ball, Rudolfo Luat (.719) miscues and never

shoots again. Lou Butera (.731) wins 9-8.

While trailing 3-6, Dick Megiveron (.786) watched as

Gary Hutchings (.756) broke the balls. Dick then ran

out, broke and ran out, broke and ran out, and broke

and ran out. Dick won the match 9-7.

Gil Maacareno (.818) missed an easy seven ball.

Cecil Tugwell (.897) then garnered the tournament

high run honors by winning that rack and running

four more. Cecil won 9-3.

Leading 8-7, Gene Yates (.691) miscued on the eight

ball. Rich Geiler (.722) then tied the match and at

8-8, ran the rack but scratched on the nine.

Leading 8-7, Joe Salazar (.846) is ready to sink the

last three balls to defeat Jim Mataya (.881). Joe

miscues on the seven but still pockets it! He

manicures his tip, chalks up, and miscues on the

eight! Jim wins 9-8.

This is the first of sev­

eral major events featuring

Stary's handicap system.

All of the players were

familiar with the system

having established ratings.

The Handicap System

Stary developed his system

in 1968 although Mike

Pasqual, a professor,

invented the mathematical

formula in 1950. The handi­

cap used is "games on the

wire". This enables players

of all calibres, from

amateur to pro, to compete

on an equal par. Gene has

only been actively promot­

ing his system for the last

Organized Tournaments

For the room owner who finds it

difficult to organize tournaments on

a weekly basis, this handicap system

is the answer. The score sheet is

simple to use. At the start of each

inning, all that is marked is

whether or not the player has an

open shot to a pocket. That's it!

The scoresheets are then processed

and a report listing each player's

rating is returned. These ratings

are referenced to a chart which

determines the proper handicap. So,

if you are having problems filling

fields for local tournaments, TRY

THIS SYSTEM!

idea of how we l l lady nine b a i l e r s p l ay . In most

cases a good woman's score i s i n the .700's and

occas iona l ly we witness an .800.

In the two out of three set f i n a l s at the Sands

Regent Open, Jean Balukas beat Mary Kenniston 7 - 1 ,

7-1 and posted a .911 and a .956. The .956 i n c i d e n ­

women's and men's d i v i s i o n s . I f we combine the two

sets fo r a race to 14, Jean averages .923. Quite an
